The Nanjing Forestry University Herbarium (Nanjing, Jiangsu), coded as NF in the Index Herbarium (Thiers 2016), is one of the most important herbarium in Eastern China, especially for its collections in woody plants. While studying the type specimens housed at NF, the types of 15 names of Chinese taxa in three families were found to be represented by gatherings with two or more specimens, that can be regarded as syntypes (Arts. 9.5, 40.2 Note 1 of the ICN, McNeill et al., 2012). Lectotypes for these names were here designated according to Arts. 8.1, 8.2, 9.2 of the ICN (McNeill et al. 2012).

A New Species

The Asian frog genus Megophrys is a diverse group of morphologically conserved, forest-dwelling frogs. The genus harbours highly localised species diversification and new species continue to be described on a regular basis. We examined the taxonomic status of a population of Megophrys frogs from the Hoang Lien Range in northern Vietnam and southern China previously identified as M. kuatunensis (subgenus Panophrys). Preliminary phylogenetic analyses using a fragment of 16S rDNA places the species in question within the Megophrys (subgenus Panophrys) species group, a primarily Chinese radiation within the genus. On the basis of morphological, molecular and bioacoustic data, we conclude that this population does not represent M. kuatunensis, or any known species in the genus. We herein describe this species of Megophrys as new. Known only from Sa Pa District, Lao Cai Province in Vietnam and Jinping County, Yunnan Province in China, the new species is likely to be threatened by ongoing deforestation in the region. We provide an updated species description of M. kuatunensis based on type specimens, and suggest that M. kuatunensis is likely to be restricted to eastern China.

Eleven taxa ofLopharias.s.,Dendrodontia,DentocorticiumandFuscocerrenain Polyporales are included in the phylogenetic analyses of nuc rDNA ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 (ITS), D1-D2 domains of nuc 28S rDNA (28S) and RNA polymerase II second-largest subunit (rpb2) sequences. New speciesLophariaresupinataandL.sinensisare described and illustrated.Lophariaresupinata, from south-eastern China, is closely related toL.ayresii, andL.sinensis, from northern China, is related toL.cinerascensandL.mirabilis.Lophariamirabilisspecimens from temperate to tropical areas with varied hymenophore configurations all cluster together in a fully supported clade.DendrodontiaandFuscocerrenaare shown to be synonyms ofDentocorticium, which is phylogenetically related toLopharia. Four new combinations,Dentocorticiumbicolor,D.hyphopaxillosum,D.portoricenseandD.taiwanianum, are proposed. Revised generic descriptions ofLophariaandDentocorticiumare provided with keys to the six accepted species in each genus. A list of all names inLophariaandDentocorticiumare presented with their current taxonomic status. Type specimens ofDentocorticiumbrasilienseandD.irregularewere examined and determined to be later synonyms ofPunctulariasubhepaticaandDiplomitoporusdaedaleiformis, respectively.Corticioid fungi, dendrohyphidia, species complex, wood-inhabiting fungi

A New Species

A new species, Hemiptarsenus jilinus Tao, sp. nov., is described and illustrated. All the type specimens were reared from Chromatomyia horticola (Goureau) (Diptera: Agromyzidae), a leafminer attacking the plants Ixeris polycephala Cass. and Pterocypsela indica (L.) Shih, in Jilin Province, north-eastern China. A key to Chinese species of the genus is provided.
